IMail v12 Web Client Help

Welcome to the New IMail Web Client

IMail Web Client

Ipswitch Web Client lets you send and receive mail using a Web browser. You can log on to the IMail Web Client from any computer with a supported browser, and manage your email without installing email client software. IMail Web Client uses direct access to manage mail on the server, which allows all mail folders and messages to reside on the server.

IMail Web Client is an integrated Web-based collaboration client. This client replaces the current Web Messaging Client and WebMail templates. If you used contacts or contact lists (distribution lists) in a previous version of Ipswitch Web Messaging or in Microsoft Outlook with the IMail Collaboration plug-in, the contacts and contact lists are automatically imported into the new IMail Web Client as a newly created Contacts folder.

Client User Interface

A new web based client allows user-friendly access to critical email functions: Inbox, mail folders, composing, personal user settings, calendaring, inbound rules, public folders, contact management, notes, tasks, RSS Feeds, Websites and the ability to switch between the client and the administrator pages if you have Administrator privileges.

IMail Web Client supports: Microsoft? Internet Explorer 8.0 or later Mozilla Firefox v5.0 or later Safari 2.0.4 and later for Macintosh, or, the upgraded version of Safari installed with Mac OS X version 10.4.8 Google Chrome

Web Client browser requires: Enabled Javascript support in the Web browser Enabled Cookie support in the Web browser Enabled pop-ups for Calendar reminders

IMail Web Client directly accesses the server to manage mail on the server, and does not require IMAP services to be running. When a user creates a mailbox in IMail Web Client, the mailbox is created on the mail server and mail folders and messages reside on the server.

You can access the IMail Web Client login page by entering the IMail Server address in the browser address field.

Important. You may need to change network firewall settings to make a specified port available for IMail Web Client access.
